How to become Spider-Man: App 'brings Marvel Morphsuits to life'

When we were kids, we used to pretend we were a superhero by sticking our hoods on our heads and wearing coats like capes.

Thankfully, for all our sakes, things have moved on with the unveiling of Marvel Morphsuits that come enhanced by an augmented reality app.

Launched by Morph Costume Co, the new range means that you can now become Spider-Man, Iron Man, Wolverine, Captain America or Deadpool with one cool outfit.

In a fancy twist, the costumes also have an augmented reality add-on, which means that they have 'built-in super powers' if you purchase the associated smartphone app.

Morphsuits co-founder Gregor Lawson said: "Creating Marvel costumes has long been a dream of ours and they are easily the most popular requests from our fans - we've had over 50,000 searches for Spider-Man alone on our website.

"So when the opportunity arose we wanted to make sure they were the best costumes ever produced and that's what we have achieved.
